4.5.2.3
Booting the Server When an External SCSI Hard Drive is
Connected
The external SCSI bus is scanned for disk devices before the internal bus is scanned.
As a result, Linux will label external drives before internal drives. Exercise caution
when adding and removing external devices because Linux drive device names
(such as "/dev/sea") may change, leaving the system unable to boot because the
external SCSI device may not be a boot drive.
4.5.2.4
PS/2 Mouse Misidentification
A PS/2 pointing device (mouse) may be misidentified during OS installation. To
correct the mouse configuration for the Linux OS, run the "setup" tool from the
command line. Select the "Mouse configuration" option then identify the connected
pointing device. Save the change and exit the setup utility. The Solaris OS
automatically detects the mouse, and if it finds that it needs to change some
information, it starts the kdmconfig on reboot.
